CHALLENGES THAT STUDENTS FACE WHEN WORKING WITH THEORETICAL MATERIAL DUE TO UNFORMED CRITICAL THINKING AND THE PREDOMINANCE OF CLIP THINKING

Abstract

The article deals with the problems in formation of professional competencies, critical thinking in particular and examines the challenges encountered by students when working with theoretical material. The article presents a pedagogical technique for the development of critical thinking as a possible way to overcome the problems of unformed critical thinking and the predominance of clip thinking among students. The article discusses three stages of the technique and its advantages for teaching students. The strategies discussed include providing practical examples, promoting active learning, breaking down complex information, and encouraging application of theoretical knowledge in real-world scenarios.
